There is an unwritten rule about the men's room: No matter what, under no circumstances is there to be talking. You don't share sports scores, or talk about your date the night before, or boast of your latest vehicle purchase.
With that in mind, it boggles the mind as to what the people over at Wizmark were thinking when they conceived the Interactive Urinal Communicator. While you do your business, the device plays a 10-15 second prerecorded message -- and can even be set up with flashing lights to get your attention. What a pisser!
The next time you're in the restroom and you suspect someone's breaking the no-talk rule -- relax, it's just the talking urinal.

Its the age old problem of kitsch vs. cool.
You can either be the coolest guy in town with the John Lennon talking action figure, or you can show your ironic humor with the Kim Jong-Il action figure. What's a person to do??
On one hand, the Lennon action figure from NCEA is an 18" tall figure of ultimate coolness. It features John wearing denim, dark glasses, his trademark New York T-Shirt and says "All we are saying is give peace a chance." On the other hand, Kim Jong-Il is wearing camouflage pants and has a red rocket in his hand. He doesn't talk, but who needs words when you've got the bomb?
We haven't had a decision this difficult since My Little Pony came out with a unicorn the same week G.I. Joe issued the special edition Snake Eyes action figure.
